Title: 'Edit' button on the Dashboard
Post by: teelee on 03 Jun 2010 09:09:03 AM
Hello All,
Is it possible to hide the 'Edit' button on the dashboard?  On each tab, there is an edit button, which allows the user to go to properties and unhide the 'Edit' button on the dashboard where the report is displayed.  If this happens, the user can select another report, and change the report that is displayed in the dashboard.

Thanks for any suggestions. Have a wonderful day!   :)

Yes you can hide the edit button, either in the multi-page uncheck the show toolbar,...etc options. or by configuring the security for this page.

also you can add the following in c8_location/templates/ps/portal/system.xml

<param name="ui_hide">
<CC_VIEW_TABS_OPTIONS show="Administrators"/>
</param>

Restart Cognos 8 service.
